This made me crack up more than the cannibals did!

I loved the raw version. It just sounded more honest and helped me see and appreciate the work that went into this segment. I am a huge fan of Seth so thanks for arranging this.

This is a game changing interview! Seth Godin never fails to lead and inspire me to be more generous and to "stop flying too low"! Thanks for putting this together Krista!

Here you can listen to Derek Walcott's poem recited by Kabat-Zinn, saying a prose statement was "bound to be inadequate" in communicating his point.

"Love After Love" by Derek Walcott (Read by Jon Kabat-Zinn)

We live in a world that is recreating itself one life and one digital connection at a time. On this landscape for which there are no maps, Seth Godin is a singular thought leader and innovator in what he describes as our post-industrial "connection economy." Rather than merely tolerate change, he says, we are all called now to rise to it. We are invited and stretched in whatever we do to be artists — to create in ways that matter to other people.

[Unedited] Seth Godin with Krista Tippett

Silence is an endangered species, says Gordon Hempton. He defines real quiet as presence — not an absence of sound, but an absence of noise. The Earth, as he knows it, is a "solar-powered jukebox." Quiet is a "think tank of the soul." We take in the world through his ears.

Gordon Hempton — A Guided Walk In The Hoh Rain Forest

Kwv txhiaj is a Hmong musical form that has its origins in southern China and Southeast Asia, is several centuries old and is kept alive through its singers. One of them happens to call the US Midwest home.

Over the 15 years that she has hosted her award-winning and nationally beloved radio program on NPR, On Being, Krista Tippett has brought to light people whose purpose and passion somehow deepen the human experience, whose missions kindle in us a sense of wonder.

Tippett discusses with Andrew Zolli the insights she has gleaned from the luminous characters she’s interviewed. Together they discuss the art of living and how presence — the exhilaration of engaging with life for its own sake, not as a means to an end — is actually driving some of the most powerful positive change in the world today.
 
This Wisdom Talk is co-presented with the Garrison Institute.

LYRICS
I was waiting for the raft to arrive.
I was hoping you’d be by my side.
But I guess I’m alone, like everybody else;
The deep we must survive.

I was keeping the time and making plans.
I was cursing, did it have to be so bad?
But I guess I’m alone, like everybody else;
The deep we must survive.

You gotta keep moving now.
You gotta keep moving now.

Forever and ever and ever
And ever and ever and ever
And ever and ever and ever
And ever and ever and ever
Now.

So watch your back and I’ll keep watching mine.
Wave goodbye to all those golden times.
And boy don’t you slip now cuz the world is watching you:
It doesn’t care if you die.

Keep Moving

Evolution and technology have allowed our human species to manipulate the physical environment around us -- reshaping fields into cities, redirecting rivers to irrigate farms, domesticating wild animals into captive food sources, conquering disease. But now, we're turning that "innovative gaze" inwards: which means the main products of the 21st century will be bodies, brains, and minds. Or so argues Yuval Harari, author of the bestselling book Sapiens: A Brief History of Mankind and of the new book Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow, in this episode of the a16z Podcast.

What happens when our body parts no longer have to be physically co-located? When Big Brother -- whether government or corporation -- not only knows everything about us, but can make better decisions for us than we could for ourselves? That's ridiculous, you say. Sure... until you stop to think about how such decisions already, actually happen. Or realize that an AI-based doctor and teacher will have way more information than their human counterparts because of what can be captured, through biometric sensors, from inside (not just observed outside) us.

So what happens then when illusions collide with reality? As it is, religion itself is "a virtual reality game that provides people with meaning by imposing imaginary rules on an objective reality". Is Data-ism the new religion? From education, automation, war, energy, and jobs to universal basic income, inequality, human longevity, and climate change, Harari (with a16z's Sonal Chokshi and Kyle Russell) reflect on what's possible, probable, pressing -- and is mere decades, not centuries, away -- when man becomes god... or merges with machines.
